Popular Boise Brewery to Launch New Line of Idaho Vodka

Sometimes, you just need to get to the point.

That’s one way of saying it–but it’s how perhaps Boise’s most popular brewery has announced they’re rolling out a “new booze” that’ll get you “to the fun” a little bit quicker.

Known best for their locally brewed beer and seltzer, Western Collective has announced they’ve began to dabble in vodka and they want you to join the party–literally.

As Western Collective states on their event page, announcing the new product:

It is made with Idaho Winter Wheat, is gluten free, 40% ABV and available at 20+ liquor stores across Idaho. It is also the base to all of our seltzers, and I promise its the highest quality spirit you can buy in a seltzer as a result. We didn’t try to be fancy, we didn’t try to sell you with dogs, we are selling you with straight up great vodka, I promise if you try it side by side with the dog vodka, you will be blown away

Sound delicious!?

Sure, you can pick up a bottle at a nearby liquor store, but in true Western Collective fashion, there will be a launch party taking place this weekend so that you can participate in the local business’ new product!

It’s actually a party set to go ALL WEEKEND.

On Saturday, hit Western Collective from 2:00 p.m. until 10:00 pm. for a day full of interactive experiences that will offer 10+ cocktails, curated playlists and more to really submerge you into the new vodka!

On Sunday, experience the ‘Funk Brunch’ at House of Western where from 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. there will be a brunch buffet, a disco DJ, and of course…curated Western Spirits cocktails.

Town Hall to address future of Medicaid expansion in Idaho – Local News 8

POCATELLO, Idaho (KIFI) – Nearly two-thirds of Idaho voters approved Medicaid expansion, but local leaders say that coverage is now at risk.

According to the organizers of a town hall set for Saturday, February 28, proposed changes could severely impact Idaho’s rural hospitals and leave thousands of residents without access to healthcare.

The town hall, titled “Protecting What Works: Medicaid Expansion in Idaho,” will take place at Chubbuck City Hall from 10:30 a.m. to noon.

A panel of representatives from across the healthcare sector — including home health, hospitals, and public and community health — will answer questions about how Medicaid expansion works in Idaho and how potential cuts could affect communities. Organizers say there will also be time for audience questions.

One of the event organizers told Local News 8 why the discussion is important:

“There have been conversations in the last couple of legislative sessions about either fully repealing Medicaid expansion or making significant cuts to Medicaid,” Shantay Boxham, the organizer, said. “This is an educational forum to ensure voters and community members have the information they need about what the program is, what’s at stake, and how it supports Idaho and Idahoans.”

There are limited seats available for the meeting. To reserve a spot, visit members.pocatello.com.

Local News 8 will continue to follow this story and have updates tomorrow.
